Overview
Viremia is a medical condition where viruses enter the bloodstream. It is similar to bacteremia, a condition where bacteria enter the bloodstream.[1]
Active viremia refers to the capability of the virus to replicate in blood.
Types
There are two types of viremia:
- Primary viremia, which is the initial spread of virus in the blood.
- Secondary viremia, where the primary viremia has resulted in infection of additional tissues, in which the virus has replicated and once more entered the circulation.
